TUNGULÆKUR

A sort of Dejavu...right? A year on, another volcanic eruption and seemingly a looming danger of grounded flights. We hear there is some of the "same as last year" going on in the UK but up here we say: Cheer up. The weather forecasts are favorable, and above all, the eruption is on the vane. Our volcano specialists have told the foreign and local media, that while this explosion was far bigger than last years effort by Eyjafjallajökull, the typical Grimsvotn eruption is a lot of fireworks initially but a deflated balloon within a few days. And so it has progressed, news tell us that the eruption has shrunk and even stopped , the worst is over.

Titanic start to the season on Tungulaekur river 6. April 2011 In our wildest dreams we would not have predicted the kind of start that we have been offered on Tungulaekur despite the fact that this particular river always grabs the main headlines from day one.
